Tom’s Hardware, a senior foreign hardware media, produced a 2023 video card ladder map。The test platform this time is Intel Core i9-12900K, but the media said that it is using Core i9-13900K for retesting, but the workload is too large and it will take several weeks to complete.
The configuration of this test platform is attached as follows:
-
Intel Core i9-12900K
-
MSI Pro Z690-A WiFi DDR4 Motherboard
-
Corsair 2x16GB DDR4-3600 CL16
-
Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
-
coolmaster MWE 1250 V2 Gold
-
coolmaster PL360 Flux
-
coolmaster HAF500
-
64-bit Win11 Professional
The following test results are all tested without enabling DLSS, FSR, XeSS and other functions, and some of the actual measurement data may show abnormalities. For example, the mid-2022 RX 6950 XT will be faster than the RX 7900 XTX at 1080P in some games, likely due to game and driver updates during that time.
The test is tested in four aspects: 1080P medium quality, 1080P very high quality, 1440P very high quality and 4K very high quality. The NVIDIA RTX 4090 GPU is the most powerful.
Under the ray tracing test, five games including “Bright Memory Infinite”, “Control Ultimate Edition”, “Cyberpunk 2077”, “Metro Exodus Enhanced” and “Minecraft” were tested. All games use the DirectX 12 / DX12 Ultimate API.
